    I am bearish in the 30mins chart,
    I short every rally I see in the 5mins
    until my stop in 30mins is hit.
    Plain and simple. Nothng to think about.

    4012 was a good short after all... :)
    Better than 4005 on the break.

    Actually, I missed another short entry @ 07.
    I am holding almost $15k in US long stock
    I need to hedge...

    Indeed good for this trade, but be cautious, averaging down can hurt.:)

    grrr... it's NOT averaging down.. it's scaling in!!! :p

    Anyway, it looks like quite a break... I wonder where
    my US stocks will open...

    You are right it is quite a break. You know I think averaging up is o.k. if you are a classic momentum player. Both is scaling in. :D

    I see strange stuff.. may be wrong, but this may
    be a gigantic buying opportunity. Time will tell.
